CARLSBAD, Calif., Feb. 8, 2016 – SURFING Magazine and Surf Ride have teamed up once again to bring Camp Shred, the world's largest surf demo, back to San Elijo Campground in Cardiff By the Sea, Calif., February 27 and 28. The annual event, now in its fourth year, brings the best surf brands and thousands of loyal consumers for a fun weekend of camping, surfing and demoing the latest greatest gear, all while giving back to California State Parks.

Major purchases like wetsuits, surfboards and other surf gear can be expensive, so the chance to try before you buy is key.

But the fun doesn't stop with the free demo opportunities. The festival-like demo site will also feature music and entertainment, food trucks and the always-popular Saint Archer beer garden.

The free and open to the public event will run from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday and 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Sunday. Proceeds from the Saint Archer beer garden will benefit California State Parks, specifically the Friends of Cardiff and Carlsbad State Beaches (FCCSB).
